If a voter has received an absentee ballot, filled it out, but does not have time to mail it:
1. The voter can take the completed absentee ballot (before election day) and bring it to the FCGC (12000 Government Center Pkwy) and place it in the outside box labeled “Tax Box”
2. The voter can take the completed absentee ballot on Election Day to FCGC and call in to have someone come and retrieve their ballot.
3. The voter could bring it to Vienna Community Center on Election Day, have it spoiled and then vote in-person.
